letra de veterans - mr. pink (rapper)

[chorus: mr. pink]
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
incase i meet a man who does what he does to survive
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
it’s either my wallet or the end of his life

[verse 1: mr. pink]
slightly choked, throat clenched
walking by a dirty bum
stumped for a guess to how this happens to anyone
he got a beard like santa and no t–th on his gums
crying for a dollar at the age of eighty-one
lending cents to a broken man, he accepts
lending 2 to the government, they reject
slums of america, nothing but solemn
they’ll form a pity committee but won’t ever solve the problem
walking past shattered faces, blood splatters on the sidewalk
a kind heart lives in them but they live in squalor
stalling the new bill, filibustering single moms
food stamps for days, sleeping in the rain
[chorus: mr. pink]
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
incase i meet a man who does what he does to survive
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
it’s either my wallet or the end of his life
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
a dollar out your pocket, its k!ll on sight
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
i’ll be here all cold till the day that i die
til the day that i die, til the day that i die (until the day that i die)

[verse 2: mr. pink]
a societies regression, pressing folks for taxes
pushing reaganomics, fearing tax brackets
a steer towards a facet only achieved by the fortunate
porridge again for supper, ten dollar food budget

i’ll be dead tomorrow if i awake on a curb
you can get educated but you can never ever learn

[bridge: mr. pink]
everyday i pass by the same man, different face
everyday i pass by the same man, different face
everyday i pass by the same man, different face
who are they trying to erase
[verse 3: mr. pink]
imagine coming home from war, being left stranded
no help from your government, no benefits granted
landed on earth as if it was another planet
candid look at what the vets are handed (jack sh-t)
i can help man, let me buy you supper
stuttering out gratitude over a dollar hamburger
later that night i’ll see the same body
either slumped over dead or attempting armed robbery
falling to your knees, god please save me
i can not die here in the middle of the street
i’ll been beat black and blue, brain on the concrete
can i please have something to eat?
days turn to years, i’m still here
begging for a meal from the kindness of my peers
cheers for the war, hooray for the soldiers
that are now on the pavement living off liquor

[chorus: mr. pink]
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
incase i meet a man who does what he does to survive
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
it’s either my wallet or the end of his life
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
a dollar out your pocket, its k!ll on sight
i’m afraid to walk alone at night
i’ll be here all cold till the day that i die
til the day that i die, til the day that i die (until the day that i die)
i’ll be here all cold till the day that i die
til the day that i die, til the day that i die (until the day that i die)
[outro]
timepiece must’ve read early morning
